How The US Stole Iraq

​@@abdourahmaneboushib243because Israel support us

For those who do not know, America said to Iraq that we have no objection if it invaded Kuwait, and after the invasion, America said, “What is this Kuwait? We must liberate it.” Also, Kuwait was taking Iraq’s oil illegally, and America told the Iraqi army and threatened it, if it did not withdraw, it would attack it, and the Iraqi army withdrew from Kuwait. America struck the withdrawing forces because they were easy targets. After that, it struck Iraq, and worse than that, it struck factories in Iraq that had no connection to the army, such as sugar factories, mills, canning factories, petrochemical factories, etc. And after the fall of Saddam, it did not contribute. America helped rebuild Iraq, and even appointed corrupt politicians because it did not want stability in Iraq. The President of Iraq demanded America’s exit in 2014, and America left, but it supported ISIS after that, so that Iraq would be forced to allow the Americans to build military bases inside it. We in Iraq, our demand is to partner with China in a way Chinese silk because it will contribute to the reconstruction of Iraq. We give China oil and it contributes to the reconstruction of Iraq. Iraq partnered with China, but America did not like that and incited the Iraqi people through its fake flags to demonstrate against this project. The prime minister who wanted to partner with China was overthrown because America wants oil for itself. Also, the antiquities of Iraq were stolen by Britain, Germany, France, and America........ We are not against the people of America, but against this... American government .

They won't be repenting but they will be seeing their defeat soon No longer is American military totally dominant It is most powerful but it is not dominant anymore

Still, ISIS militants are fully responsible for what they had done & what they had become. Being trespassed isn’t a justification for becoming so evil.

You’re understating what we actually did to Iraq and to the Middle East in general. The US hasn’t just “trespassed” or whatever, they’re destroyed countries, killed hundreds of thousands of people, and committed countless war crimes against civilians. We’ve murdered journalists, bombed mosques and hospitals, and tortured anyone we think is a terrorist. We’ve toppled democratically elected leaders and harm the people living there. Groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda are evil, but they were created as a response to American imperialism. What those groups have done is nothing compared to the atrocities committed by the American military over the past several decades.

@@somebodyimportant3490 even if, the response to evil isn’t more evil. We should hold Americans accountable whilst not excusing the horror ISIS inflicted. They are fully responsible for what they did whether US inflicted suffering and terror on them or not.

@@czystekurestwo There is no justification for the atrocities committed by groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda, but is it not understandable that militant groups would arise given all we have done to the region? We have nobody but ourselves to blame for their existence.

@@somebodyimportant3490 you are very mistaken. Wars, evil, tragedies all have a multifaceted reality of causes & factors, to blame Americans and rationalise response of the Al Qaeda groups would mean that as long as one has suffered consequences of outside forces, then anything goes, no matter how brutal & horrific.

I’m sorry my little country also joined to fight for nothing

@@MineAppleKhan Yes, they didn't. It's not like you can take resources from a sovereign country if you decide to. That certain country decides, by itself to sell oil to you. I don't think getting a favourable oil deal was worth 1 trillion dollars in the eyes of Bush admin. You people oversimplify US foreign to such amazing lengths, it blows my mind.

@@joedenathan4775 A favorable oil deal was a pretty big deal in the first half of 2000; remember the oil crisis of 1970; many things changed since then; the production of oil by the US; the price of oil and the price of oil extraction. It all changed now. And honestly, I don't think anybody was thinking that this war is going to cost 1t in 2003 and will go on for around 20 years in one way or another. That being said; yeah; it is true; oil wasn't the deciding factor; it was only the cherry on top. If you look into the evidence actually; I can't see much of a reason for the Iraq war except the need of the government to show a decisive action after an attack to satisfy the public. Exactly what this video suggests. Anything else, like oil and geopolitical reasons, seem only to be additional factors.

Who has forgiven Bush? Politicians? Lmao

Bush stole trillions from tax payers to fund the war one week before he bombed the trade centers. Rumsfeld had news conference taking about it just days before

As a person with two parents employed at defense contracting companies-- YES, I would absolutely watch that video (probably over and over again)

military-industrial-congressional complex. Eisenhower was forced to remove that from his speech, but he knew it. There's that spinning door between government and industry, and making military supplies dictated by government is a very good industry to be in.

@@isthatajojoreference8272 Hasnt happened in countries where subsidized student loans are implemented, and if it does happen there are laws like anti-monopoly laws that prevent for profit institutions from jacking up prices.

Yes, but the lack of evidence for WMDs was painfully evident at the time. I literally wrote about it as a high-school sophomore in 2002 and accurately predicted that there would be no WMDs and it would strengthen Iran (I totally didn't see ISIS coming at any point).

@@EurasianHobos wait how did it strengthen Iran?

@@leoperez6737 iraq and iran are rivals. iran can't be a great power because iraq was in the way. but when the us invaded iraq and turn iraq into a failed state, this gives a chance for iran to be a great power in the near future. the us which is THE military power is still being a barrier for iran, but only for now. the us has become an oil exporter, and is becoming much more isolationist as it's entering a second cold war. meaning the us is leaving the middle east soon. even though the us is a major part of why the middle east has become very unstable, it's also a reason why the middle east still somehow exist to this day. and now as the us eventually doesnt care about the middle east anymore, this gives Iran which is arming to become a great power free to reign, as it's main rival iraq is practically in all means dead. other states like saudi arabia is also in a crisis so will be a soft target for iran. israel won't care since they're in the other side too. virtually the only barrier that iran might face is turkey. so yeah the answer is basically that the downfall of Iraq and the us pressence have given iran time and factors to possibly become THE power of the middle east.

I have observe a pattern I guess you too have observed it, can you tell me whenever DEMOCRATS are in power war generally happens at least one or two places in the world and USA is directly or indirectly involved in that war. During Trump rule, we rarely heard about USA going into war but in time of Biden UKRAINE IS IN WAR WITH RUSSIA. Democrats are the one who wanted to keep the salve system alive in USA but Republicans has stopped slavery of Blacks in USA. AMERICA is not the problem but the problem is democrats and their greed.

@@zenabahmed4221 you called?

​@Ooki Cooki Yes, I know about the Iran-Iraq war. That doesn't make Saddam Hussein a Hitler-like figure. The difference is, Saddam committed those atrocities while he was on the US's good side, including use of chemical weapons on Iranians, and massacre of the Kurds in Northern Iraq. After Saddam was on the US's bad side, I doubt that he would have been much of a threat to the West. Maybe that's untrue. I'll let you be the judge of that.

@Ooki Cooki Whether or not that is the case, it is up to the citizens of those countries which provide military aid and such for the perpetration of atrocities to do something about it to the extent that they have that ability. If you are an American, you should be worried about what are the consequences of your actions (or inaction) primarily. To the extent that you can do something about it, like putting pressure on your government, you are responsible for the level of your inaction and/or active participation in your government's atrocities. Vox is doing a disservice when it speaks to a Western audience and doesn't accurately portray their own complicity and responsibility and that of their past, current and future governments.

We are not the main players in Syria. The outside forces are involved are Turkey, Russia, and Iran. Sad truth is that the US pulling out of the Middle East (which I am for) won’t bring peace in the region. Saudi Arabia, Iran, Russia, and Turkey will still be meddling around in the region.

It's not just the US. NATO did the no-fly zone and coordinated operations in Libya, and left months later. In Syria, CIA armed rebels to fight Russian and Syrian government forces (Not the ISIL rebels). NATO conducts strikes against ISIL. The US marines we're arming Kurds and training Syrian Democratic Forces, but now they're guarding oil fields until they're handed back over to Syria.
